Whenever I make or receive a call, the screen shows the "incoming" or "outgoing" screen for a second, then the screen turns off.
Upon turning it back on, it turns back off after about half a second and won't turn back on, I tried pressing power and home button, putting my finger over the non-physical buttons at the bottom and applying pressure along the edge of the phone.
This is a major flaw since when I'm making a call and they don't pick up, it stays on the "please leave a message" portion of the call and I am forced to shut the phone off just to continue using it. The same happens when I get an incoming call. The accept and reject buttons don't appear so I have to wait until it rings to call them back. What is the point of I can't simply make calls on a smartphone?
I have already disabled the proximity sensor via the call settings, but it didn't make any difference.
This is very frustrating when I have to make many calls.

Do you have a case on it? The case might be blocking the sensor.. Also, sometimes an app causes problems with the sensor.

Is there anyway I can turn off screen timeout during a phonecall? It's really annoying when I hit end to end the call but it actually only turns the screen on and I have to hit end again... I would rather have the screen stay on during calls and hitting end (either the physical button or the on screen end, but in this case, probably the on screen end) to end the call. Are they're any apps on the market or any patches for ROMs (I'm rooted running a custom ROM) that I can get to achieve this?
Thanks
i would also love to be able to do this. Toggle would be good for this setting too. When I am on conference calls , I typically use a Bluetooth headset. Therefore I need the screen to stay on to control mute, etc. But when I am using the phone up to my ear screen timeout would be desirable so that i don't accidentally press buttons.
Hi all,
This has happened to me twice now and I can't figure out how to fix this.
When you make a call you have your standard options on your screen such as mute, speaker, numbers etc. However after a few minutes the screen naturally turns off and there is no way to turn it back on again without having to press the Sleep button.
The reason why this is a problem is if you want to enable/disable mute, speakerphone or you need to input a number as in my case i was on hold for a long time to a call centre.
I tried to press the back button as well as home, but both did nothing and finally the volume buttons but that didn't activate the screen. The only button you can press is the Sleep button but that will end the call.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
When you are on the phone, the screen should turn off when the phone is near your ear, pretty much immediately, and come back on soon after you take it away. Unless you are using speaker phone of course.
Perhaps a problem with your proximity sensor?
The sleep button only ends the call if you set it too.

During a call, the screen randomly turns on and so the call gets notoriously disconnected because End Call button is getting pressed with a cheek or hair or whatever.
Is there some way to either fix it, or just disable it so the screen remains off during a call, unless Home button is pressed?
I tried several roms and it's always the same.
I could swear their used to be a setting in the phone app to automatically turn off the screen during calls. I can't find it in the version with this device, and although the proximity sensor works when I'm holding it to my ear during a call, when it's in my pocket the screen stays on, (or if receiving a call/connecting while driving it turns on), leading to the mute, bluetooth, or end call buttons being randomly pressed during calls and causing issues. Am I just not finding the setting, or is it gone, or is there some other way to shut off the screen automatically when a call is connected? ( I know, don't leave the phone in my pocket by driving, but looking for something a little more functional here). Thanks!
When I'm on a phone call the screen turns off. This messes me up if I have the mute button or speaker phone (accidentally) enabled. When the other party picks up or asks something I'm unable to get the screen back quick enough and they assume the line dropped. This is really annoying. I use the power button on the phone to hang up so pressing it wouldn't work. How can I fix this problem? The easiest way I can think of is if there's an option to just not have the screen turn off?
When this happens I try tapping on the screen but it usually just comes back momentarily before I can unmute.
